They have put more emphasis on (the Browns running game), particularly after he got his 1,000 yards and people realized who he is and what he is as a runner.

They'll mix things up quite a bit. They give you different fronts and pressures, and they pressure from a lot of fronts. They try to confuse people and get guys free.
